The Translucence of Image

Very few people know this, so I felt it necessary to inform those people of this little fact of life. It doesn’t matter what you’re wearing. What I mean by this is you aren’t a better person for what you wear, where you shop, or how many people agree that your clothing is cool and trendy.

Money that could be spent for necessities, like food and paying rent, is being spent on clothes that people don’t necessarily have to buy, but feel like they want to because their friends are. Then again, what do I know? I’m just some punk who shops at the Salvation Army to save a buck or two because he thinks that fabric and material sewn together isn’t that big a deal. Silly me.
